Development principles such as continuous integration and continuous delivery become increasingly popular in the software industry. They allow for the quick and automated build, test, and delivery of software, thereby significantly improving the overall quality assurance and release processes. In this paper, we show how to apply the ideas of continuous delivery to complex system software, as exemplified by the SAP HANA database platform. We discuss the integration of performance testing early in the delivery process and the construction of services to detect and report performance anomalies in a continuous integration process.
